Finally, something to enjoy on Showtime’s Weeds. It’s been a long time since the show did little more than make me feel uncomfortable watching my television. While everything isn’t back to normal, the premiere of the dark comedy did little to disappoint. A major theme that I picked up in the episode was relationships. Between […]
Weeds is back. And I don’t mean, like, returning to Showtime’s lineup (although season 5 premieres this Monday night, at 10PM), I mean, it’s BACK. As in, while season 4 was kinda Mexico crazy, season 5 gets right back into season 3’s saddle and gets us set for an awesome ride! Not ready for season […]
Last year, I raced — absolutely raced — through the first three seasons of Weeds on DVD. It was one of those shows I couldn’t get enough of. Even though drugs are serious business, there was something so funny about suburban mom Nancy Botwin turning to the drug trade to make ends meet. Let’s face […]

I enjoyed the first part of the season, although there were a few things that bugged me and the first five episodes left me with several questions. I’ve finished the second five episodes of […]
Week of January 4 to January 11 Clever, insolent, creative, irreverent; even a little twisted. I speak of the writers here at CliqueClack, and the unique posts they churn out day after day. How could we let seven days go by without highlighting some of the week’s gems? TV’s back, baby, and so are we! […]
I understand that it’s well-written and well-acted. It has Jeffrey Dean Morgan playing a dead dude (who isn’t having gh0st sex with his very alive ex-fiancee!) and Mary-Louise Parker. What more can you ask for? Well, yes. All of that sounds good on paper, but I have one major problem with the show: I find potheads really annoying.
